I have a laptop with an Intel 945GM Express graphics card. When running the test level some walls flash on and off (so they appear to disappear).

Any idea what is going on?

It's not the laptop it's the Intel card.
Intel graphics cards suck.
I know.I have them on my computer.
When you see people bragging about their specs your won't see an Intel graphics card.
They are junk.

Thanks for your comments guys.

Yep I agree, Intel graphics (or integrated ones anyway) really suck bad. I am regreting buying this laptop - unfortunately I couln't afford one with a better graphics card - lifes a bitch.

Anyone else had this problem? Any of the TGC guys know of a way of getting around this issue?(apart from getting a another laptop!)

Try updating the drivers.

By way of demonstration, he emitted a batlike squeak that was indeed bothersome.
